MEXICO CITY—Humane Society International applauds bakery-restaurant corporation Le Pain Quotidien for joining the list of food and hospitality companies in Mexico that are adopting a cage-free egg policy, committing to switch to 100 percent cage-free eggs by 2025 or sooner. This pledge applies to all Le Pain Quotidien locations in Mexico, and the company will work actively with its suppliers to achieve this commitment.

Le Pain Quotidien stated on its website: “We are convinced of the importance of promoting a good treatment for animals, and we are happy to contribute to a faster transition to better production practices.”

Sabina García, corporate policy and program manager for HSI Farm Animals in Mexico, stated: “We congratulate Le Pain Quotidien for joining the cage-free movement in support of farm animals and animal welfare, and for joining hundreds of food corporations in Mexico and around the globe. We invite other companies to adopt similar policies and to have a more responsible supply chain.”
